Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
what cell helps activate the B cell; helps B cell decide whether it is a foreign antigen or an antigen that belongs in the body
A
Plasma cells
B
memory cells
C
T Cells
D
Helper T Cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, the helper T cell activates those B cells with receptors that specifically recognize the antigen that initially activated the T cell, although the T and B cells usually recognize distinct antigenic determinants on the antigen (see Figure 24-70).

Detailed explanation-2: -B cells act as antigen presenting cells to induce T cell responses to specific antigens. B cells also have roles in development and maintenance of memory T cells (6, 66–68) to provide optimal T cell response to antigens in long-term antigen exposure.
